Kamal Nath govt will survive, say MP Cong MLAs

Several of the nearly 90 Congress MLAs who landed in Jaipur amid a political crisis in Madhya Pradesh triggered by former Guna MP Jyotiraditya Scindia's exit from the party told reporters that there was not threat to the Kamal Nath government and it will survive.

The MLAs arrived at the Jaipur airport around 2.30 pm in a special flight from Bhopal and were received by Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot along with other party leaders.

Gehlot has accused the BJP of horse-trading in Madhya Pradesh after Scindia's exit and the resignation of 22 MLAs loyal to him from the Madhya Pradesh assembly.

One of the two Jaipur resorts where the legislators will be staying is Buena Vista where the party MLAs from Maharashtra were lodged in November last year.

In a conversation with reporters, a party legislator said, "The Kamal Nath government will complete its term. There is no threat. We all are together."
